Technology Training: Security: Cryptography
Course Objectives:Upon completion of this course the student will be able to:
- Differentiate between public and private key algorithms
- Describe algorithm construction, key distribution/management and methods of attack
- Articulate the application, construction and use of digital signatures to provide authenticity of electronic transactions and the non-repudiation of the parties involved
Course Type:
The course is taught in class with an instructor.
Prerequisite:
A detailed understanding of IP networking and data communication is strongly recommended. Also, the student may take the Networking: Foundations, Networking Foundations: Advanced and/or TCP/IP: Foundations courses.
Audience:
Individuals that need to understand security concepts specifically related to cryptographic technology, specifically Systems Engineers, Network Administrators, Network Consultants, Technical Architects, and Security Planners.
Course Description:
This course introduces the student to cryptographic principles, means and methods of disguising information to ensure it's integrity, confidentiality and authenticity.
